I agree with you on the "flood" of messages lately. Often this flood accompanies a new release, but this flood has continued unabated for longer than I would have imagined. The good news is that R is becoming more popular and this (hopefully) attracts more developers, which results in more libraries, etc. The bad news is that with more users come more questions.
I don't consider that "bad news". That's just "how it is". As far as I can see, it's all good news :)
Personally, I prefer having the email list with the individual messages (rather than the digest) because I check email frequently and can catch things as they come in. If the list moved to Usenet or a web forum, I doubt I would check the list as frequently, if ever.
